Waiting For The Miracle Chords by Leonard Cohen

[E] _ _ _ _ _ _ [Em] _ _
_ _ _ _ [E] _ _ [Em] _ _
Baby, I've been waiting, [Bm] _ I've been [D] waiting night [Em] and day. _ _ _ _ _
I didn't see the time, [D] _ I waited half [Em] my life away. _ _ _ _
[D] There were lots of invitations, _ _ I know you sent [Cm] me some.
_ _ _ [B] _ _ [G] But I [Em] was waiting [D] for [C] the miracle, [D] _
[A] for the miracle to come.
[Am] _ [B] _ _ [G] _ _
[Em] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
I know you really love me, [D] _ but you see [Em] my hands were tied. _ _ _ _
I know it must have hurt you, [D] _ it must have hurt [Em] your pride.
_ _ _ _ I have [D] to stand beneath my window, _ with your bugle and [Cm] your drum.
_ _ [B] _ [G] And here I am up there waiting, [D] for [C] the miracle, [D] _
[A] for the miracle to come.
[Am] _ [B] _ _ _ _
[Em] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
I don't believe you'd like it, [D] _ you wouldn't like [Em] it here. _ _ _ _ _ _
There ain't no entertainment, _ [D] and the judgments [Em] are severe. _ _ _ _ _
[D] The maestro says it's Mozart, _ but it sounds [A] like bubblegum.
_ [B] _ _ [G] _
[Em] I'm here waiting, [D] _ [C] for the miracle, [D] _
[Cm] for the miracle to [B] come. _ _ _ _
[Em] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Am] Waiting, for the miracle, _ [Em] there's nothing left to do. _ _ _ _
[B] I haven't been this happy, _ [Em] since the end of World War II.
Nothing [Am] left to do, when you know that you've been taken.
_ Nothing left [Bm] to [Em] do, when you're begging for a crumb.
Nothing left to do, when you've got to go [G] on [C] waiting. _ _
[Eb] Waiting, for the miracle [B] to come. _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Em] I dreamed about you baby, [D] _ it was just the [Em] other night. _ _ _ _ _ _
Most of you was naked, [D] _ but some of you [Em] was laid. _ _ _ _ _
[D] The sands of time were falling, _ from your fingers [Cm] and your thumb.
_ _ [B] _ _ And you [G] were waiting, [D] _ [Em] for the miracle, [D] for [A] the miracle to come.
_ [B] _ _ _
[Em] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
Now baby, let's get married.
[D] _ We've been alone [Em] too long. _ _ _ _ _
Let's be alone together, [D] _ let's see if [Em] we're that strong. _ _ _ _ _
[D] Yeah, let's do something crazy, _ something absolutely [Cm] wrong.
_ _ [B] _ _ _ [G]
[Em] While we're waiting, [D] for [C] the miracle, [D] _
[A] for the miracle to [B] come. _ _ _ _
[Em] _ _ _ _ _ _ Nothing left [Am] to do, when you know that you've been taken.
Nothing left to do, [Em] when you're begging for a crumb.
Nothing left to do, when you've got to go on waiting. _ _
[Eb] Waiting, for the [Gb] miracle [B] to come. _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Em] When you're falling on the highway, [D] _ and you're lying [Em] in the rain. _ _ _ _ _
When they ask you how you're doing, [D] of course you say you [Em] can't complain. _ _ _ _ _
[D] If you're squeezed for information, that's when you come to [Cm] play it dumb.
_ _ [G] You just say you're [Em] out there waiting, [D] _ [C] for the miracle, [D] _
for the [A] miracle to come.
